Comments Thread For: Jacobs: Golovkin Isn't Afraid of Derevyanchenko; Just Business

[TonyGe]

GGG dropped the IBF belt. As a result we have Jacobs vs Derevyanchenko fight. Isn't it amazing?

Yeah and it's about time there was some movement amoung the contenders. Long overdue..

Golovkin is Businessman, Not Idol of Boxing.

No, he is a beggar.

So you agree he could possibly of lost and instead pulled a 154lber up out of retirement

Of course, anything is possible in the world of boxing. At any moment, anything can happen and change the course of legacy inside the squared circle. Deravyanchenko who has 12 professional fights and his last fight was against a guy with 22-22...is a good fighter, but GGG wins this fight if it happens.

Of course. Business 101"money before belts". Hey, money talks and the monkey dances for money.

During this period, nobody was interested in facing GGG, then CEjr stepped up and agreed to fight but then he lost his pen as I recall. Brook was offered the fight to replace Eubanks. GGG was not recruiting 147ers and jmw's.

He wasn't recruiting them, but he didn't refuse to fight them either! It was a "business decision," just like not fighting Ward while awaiting the winner of Canelo vs. Cotto! Why? Because Canelo and Cotto (neither which were true MWs) were money fights! Ward, who was P4P#2 behind Mayweather, would've been a legacy fight! GGG chose the money! I'm not mad at him, but don't be a hypocrite!

Beggars get what they give them. He wanted more money and he got it. That doesnt sound like a beggar.

Even Jacobs knows Sergei is a nobody didnt u read the article dumba**? He would of fought and beat Canelo but ur daddy was caught ridding dirty.

NEW YORK Daniel Jacobs could've criticized Gennady Golovkin and commended himself all at the same time. Jacobs just doesn't think Golovkin is afraid of fighting Sergiy Derevyanchenko. The former WBA world middleweight champion believes it simply made financial sense for Golovkin to put off making a mandatory defense of his IBF middleweight title against Derevyanchenko because he'll make much more money for his rematch with Canelo Alvarez.

what bullshht

Golovkin could have simply fought Derevyanchenko

FACT: we all had to listen to the " mando doe " excuse whenever the opponents were soft..... the only difference is, Derevyanchenko was not soft

FACT: Loeffler said that Golovkin would not fight Derevyanchenko because he wanted more money for such a risky fight..... THAT is what they said lol

FACT: Golovkin has avoided plenty of risky opponents, Derevyanchenko can simply be added to that list

Derevyanchenko did not fit in with Golovkin's plan to tiptoe-through-the-tulips on his way to Hopkins record before cashing out with Canelo
